CHAPTER XLVI

It had been more than half an hour since the meal was finished, and Zhao Qinghan instructed the maid to remove the utensils from the table, while she herself got up and went to the kitchen to bring out the desserts and fruits that had been prepared long ago. The dessert was made in the gap between cooking, and I made a lot of preparations for the old man of the Shen family and Shen Muge to take back.

Zhao Qinghan came out with his things, and Shen Muge was sitting on the sofa in the living room with Uncle Zhang watching TV, and the TV was just some advertisements. Zhao Qinghan put the things in front of the two of them, and ordered the servant to make tea and bring it up, poured tea for the two and beckoned the two to eat.

Uncle Zhang shook his head with a smile and said, "I won't eat snacks, let's eat some fruit, I was already full just now, and I really can't eat it." ”

Zhao Qinghan didn't persuade him anymore when he heard Uncle Zhang's words, anyway, there are still many things, if Uncle Zhang is hungry, he can eat it himself.

"Qinghan, no need. I can't eat it either, I'll just eat some fruit, if you want to eat it, you can eat it, don't worry about me and Uncle Zhang. Shen Muge smiled helplessly and explained, he was already very full when he ate, and the food of Qinghan's family was always so delicious, although it was just an ordinary vegetarian dish, but he just felt that his mouth was full of fragrant, and there was a taste of the vegetables themselves, which made people unable to stop. So Shen Muge, who usually only eats seven or eight minutes full, has eaten a very full meal for the first time today, and he really can't eat dim sum anymore, but it's okay to eat some fruit, after all, the fruits of the Qinghan family are also very delicious.

Uncle Zhang sat for a while, then got up and said that he was tired and wanted to take a lunch break. Zhao Qinghan didn't stop her, she knew that Uncle Zhang had such a habit every day, and only told Uncle Zhang to remember to cover the quilt. Uncle Zhang nodded funny, the house is heated, even if you don't cover the quilt, it won't be cold. But Zhao Qinghan's concern is really rare, and Uncle Zhang accepted it without shirk.

There were only Zhao Qinghan and Shen Muge left in the living room, and the two of them were holding snacks, fruits and tea, watching advertisements on TV, and chatting about some painless words. Even though it was so bland, Shen Muge had a real feeling in his heart. This is the family, even if it is just to talk about some trivial things in daily life, it will not feel upset. When he was at home, he talked to his sister about what happened to whom, or which company's stocks could be used. After a day's work, I wanted to relax when I went home, but the conversation at home was also about work and connections, and Shen Muge sincerely accepted incompetence. Of course, he wasn't scolding and complaining, but he just felt that his sisters' dedication was too strong, and Shen Muge sometimes thought that he would simply hand over the Shen family to the two sisters to take care of. It's just that I can only think about it like this, if I really do it, my grandfather will have to clean him up.

"Pastoral?" Zhao Qinghan raised his voice and recalled someone who was in a trance.

"Huh? What's wrong? Shen Muge was awakened by Zhao Qinghan's voice, and he was still a little unable to distinguish between southeast and northwest.

"Your phone is ringing." Zhao Qinghan reminded Shen Muge, who had not yet reacted.

"Ahh Oh, thank you, Qinghan. Shen Muge reacted and heard the sound of his mobile phone.

Zhao Qinghan saw Shen Muge pick up the phone, got up with interest, and then left the living room with the opportunity to clean up the dishes, giving Shen Muge a relatively private space. I guess there is something going on, just pack the snacks in the kitchen and bring some fruit by the way. Zhao Qinghan thought so, so he did it. First, pack the snacks and put them in the box, then take out a fruit basket and put the fruits in a basket full of fruits. After finishing it, Zhao Qinghan cleaned and put away the fruit plate that had been packed into the kitchen, cleaned up the cooking table, and estimated that Shen Muge had finished making the call, Zhao Qinghan turned around and walked towards the living room.

Just after leaving the kitchen door, I saw Shen Muge walking towards this side.

Shen Muge looked at Zhao Qinghan and explained apologetically: "I'm sorry, Qinghan, there is some urgent matter at home, I have to rush back now." I was supposed to help you decorate the house...."

Zhao Qinghan waved his hand, signaling that it didn't matter, and then turned around and took out the packaged snacks and fruit baskets from the kitchen and handed them to Shen Muge. "This is a snack and a fruit basket, I have prepared two servings for you, one for you to keep, and the other for Grandpa Shen." After that, he handed over all the things in his hand to Shen Mu Singer.

Shen Muge carried the things in his hand and looked at the gentle Zhao Qinghan who was smiling in front of him, and there was an incredibly soft place in his heart.

"Okay, I'm not going to say no. I still have something to do, so I'll leave first, and I'll invite you to dinner as compensation for my broken promise today. Shen Muge carried his things, said goodbye to Zhao Qinghan, and turned around to leave.

Zhao Qinghan walked out with Shen Muge, still talking in his mouth, "I'll send you away." By the way, did you come by car? ”

"Well, by car." Shen Muge stood in front of the door, did not open the door, but turned to Zhao Qinghan who was following him and said, "Okay, let's send it here, it's cold outside, and you don't wear much." Stop blowing the wind and beware of catching a cold. I'll just drive back by myself. ”

Zhao Qinghan listened to Shen Muge's words, nodded, and didn't want to go out to deliver it. Zhao Qinghan stood in the room and looked at Shen Muge through the glass door. watched him open the car door, start the car, and wave goodbye to Shen Muge before leaving. Shen Muge also nodded, signaling goodbye. Then Zhao Qinghan saw Shen Muge start the car and drive towards the outside of the Zhao family's old house. It wasn't until he could no longer see the shadow of the car that Zhao Qinghan retracted his gaze and turned back to the house.

Zhao Qinghan looked at the time, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and the nap time had passed, so he simply didn't sleep. Uncle Zhang was about to get up in a while, and when the time came, he would start preparing to decorate the house, and Zhao Qinghan thought about what could be prepared in advance. After a while, Zhao Qinghan's eyes lit up, and then he raised his feet and walked towards the study.

Zhao Qinghan is going to write down the Spring Festival couplets to be used first, and everything else is ready-made, just write a few Spring Festival couplets. Laying paper, grinding, pen, pen, a pair of Spring Festival couplets is done. Zhao Qinghan looked at the words she wrote, nodded with satisfaction, it was not in vain that she had been practicing calligraphy, and this character became more and more her person. If a knowledgeable person sees Zhao Qinghan's words, they will know that this character already has a backbone, and the person who wants to practice the word has been practicing for a long time, and he is a person with a firm heart.

Zhao Qinghan wrote all the Spring Festival couplets he wanted in one go, and then carefully placed them aside, waiting for the ink to dry. After all the Spring Festival couplets were written, Zhao Qinghan put the Spring Festival couplets in the study, and when he wanted to use them, he took the book and turned around and walked out of the study. Zhao Qinghan was ready to wait for Uncle Zhang while reading a book, and when Uncle Zhang woke up, he could start decorating the house. Thinking that she and Uncle Zhang will not be busy, they will have to call the maid at home to help when the time comes.

When Uncle Zhang came to the living room, he saw Zhao Qinghan leaning lazily on the sofa in the living room, with a pot of tea on the low table in front of him, and the heat in the quilt continued to steam up, blurring Zhao Qinghan's more and more delicate and beautiful eyebrows. Uncle Zhang sighed a little, the eldest lady is becoming more and more likeable, and she has a calming atmosphere all over her body. When did the eldest lady become like this? Uncle Zhang thought in his heart, maybe it was near the end of August, and the eldest lady said that he would redecorate the house. He only didn't like it anymore, but he never thought that since then, the eldest lady has completely changed, and the person who used to be out of ostentation is gone, and she has become this gentle and elegant woman now, exuding a quiet and serene atmosphere all over her body. This should be the bearing and posture that the eldest lady of a family should have, and I think the eldest lady has grown up.

Uncle Zhang only stood quietly aside, and did not disturb Zhao Qinghan's reading, he thought that the eldest lady should be pulled out of the book in a short time, because there was still something to do.

Sure enough, after a while, Zhao Qinghan put down the book in his hand, picked up the warm tea on the table and drank it all. As if he had just noticed that Uncle Zhang was standing behind him, Zhao Qinghan was a little surprised, "Uncle Zhang?!" When did you come? Why don't you call me? ”

Uncle Zhang explained with a loving smile, "I saw that the eldest lady was fascinated, so I didn't bother the young lady." ”

Zhao Qinghan was a little coquettish, "Uncle Zhang, it's not okay for you to spoil me like this." If I haven't been able to get back to the book, aren't you going to stand behind me and not call me all the time?! This can't work, Uncle Zhang can't do this in the future. ”

Uncle Zhang looked at Zhao Qinghan, who was coquettish like a child, and shook his head funny, "I know that the eldest lady will not forget it, because the eldest lady will definitely do what she has set." Although the eldest lady was fascinated by the book when she read the book, she must have something in mind. ”

Zhao Qinghan listened to Uncle Zhang's words, and was suspicious in his heart, but there was no expression on his face. She really had something in mind, although she was fascinated by it, she was still able to pull it out, and she didn't expect Uncle Zhang to know her so well.

"Well, I can't talk about you. Let's start setting up the house, and I think you and I will be too busy, so I'm going to call the maid to help. Uncle Zhang, what do you think? Zhao Qinghan got up and asked Uncle Zhang's opinion.

Uncle Zhang nodded and agreed with Zhao Qinghan's opinion, "That's true, then call the maid to help." ”

Zhao Qinghan got Uncle Zhang's consent, so he instructed the servants to ask them to help do some trivial things, such as handing things and looking at the location. Zhao Qinghan and Uncle Zhang are responsible for most of the things, but in fact, Zhao Qinghan takes care of everything, after all, Uncle Zhang is old and can't climb up and down, nor can he lift heavy objects or anything like that.

All afternoon, Zhao Qinghan flew from one side of the house to the other, and then from there to this side like a hard-working little bee. For a while, I want to hang lanterns, I want to hang Chinese knots, I have to paste Spring Festival couplets for a while, and I have to paste window flowers for a while, which is really busy.

By the time the general things were over, Zhao Qinghan was already a little out of breath. Although she was in much better health as a monk than ordinary people, she couldn't stand such frequent busyness and physical expenses.

Uncle Zhang handed the warm tea in his hand to Zhao Qinghan, who was resting on the sofa, and said with some distress: "Look at you, you have to come by yourself, now you are tired." In the future, just leave this kind of thing to someone else to do, you are so tired Uncle Zhang looks distressed. ”

Zhao Qinghan took the tea from Uncle Zhang's hand, and listened to Uncle Zhang's seemingly disgusted but distressed words, and was a little ingenious, "Uncle Zhang, I like to make it myself." It's so boring not to make your own home, although it's tiring, but it's still very rewarding to look at the furnished home. Big deal, I'll promise you that I'll pull my father and brother in the future, so you won't have to worry about it. ”

Uncle Zhang looked at Zhao Qinghan, who was pretending to be pitiful, and was amused in his heart, so he had to reach out and poke Zhao Qinghan's forehead lightly, and said dotingly: "You!" ”
